Azeera Gems

 

The art of crafting and finding precious gems has been passed down to us for over 3 generations. Our great great grandfathers grew up in a time in India where ancestry determined trade or profession. Without question, they made the jewelry trade a part of their lives and found beauty and inspiration in gemstones. This view has not changed for us.

An Inspiring Legacy

For hundreds of years in India, your path in life was set from the moment you were born. If your parents and grandparents were farmers, then you were destined to be a farmer. If your parents were carpenters, then you would be taught carpentry from a young age.

In the early 1900s, our grandfathers were born into families that specialized in making exquisite jewelry with colorful gemstones. This trade and the knowledge associated with it was passed down from father to son until it was taught to us.

A Way of Life

While profession is no longer determined by ancestry for many children today, both of us—the founders—found the art of finding and crafting precious gems so intriguing that we decided to study gemology and carry our family businesses forward into the twenty-first century.

Having both been raised in the New York area by Indian parents, we have the unique privilege of blending western traditions with eastern values. Our forefathers conducted their businesses with discipline and passion, and their example inspires us to do the same in our company today.

The Art of Creating with Gemstones

Bringing out the full potential of a gemstone is a fine art, and we believe that each gem reaches its most stunning form through a careful balance between nature’s elemental beauty and man’s raw ingenuity. When a rough gem is selected for use in our handcrafted jewelry, it goes to our workshop in Jaipur, India, to be cut by skilled artisans. These expert craftsmen study each gem to identify the shape and size to which it naturally lends itself. This maximizes the beauty of each gem and minimizes waste.

Only the Finest Gems Pass the Test

In its final form, each of our gems retains only about 20% of its original weight. This is much less than the 50% that is common with diamonds and is necessary to ensure that the gem will meet our strict guidelines for the 4 C’s (clarity, cut, color, and carat).

We go to great lengths to ensure that our gems have the most vibrant colors, the most dazzling brilliance, and the most pristine polished surfaces possible. In order to achieve this, our gems are manufactured over the course of several phases with quality control inspections after each step. Only those gems that meet our high standards go on to be used in our unique, handcrafted jewelry.

Discover our Top-Class Gemstone Jewelry

Once the gemstones arrive at our office in New York, they go through one final quality-control evaluation and are then ready for placement in our customers’ personalized jewelry pieces. When you place an order for custom jewelry through our website, we hand-select the most ideal gem for your chosen setting. Every gem is a unique work of art, and with our handmade, American jewelry, we do our best to bring out nature’s true beauty in every piece.
